Hi John!
Thanks so *much* for your reply! I did the copy, paste, and edit routine on your
settings there in the Complex search box, but I seem to be having a problem. I
added another category called Figurines that also goes under both Sections
(Hedgehog items & Prairie Dog Items)--I can't seem to give the "Figurines"
category more than one um, "se" property (I copied and pasted your stuff in the
Complex Search Box-I'm not sure what that "se" stands for just yet unless it's
the "search term")
I'm missing something and I'm not sure what it is. When in the admin section, I
click on "Hedgehog Items", then click on "Figurines"-> category properties->
copy, paste, edit your stuff in Complex Search box to:
fi=products
st=db
ac=0
co=1
sf=category
se=Figurines
op=rm
nu=0
bs=1
sf=subcategory
se=Hedgehog
op=rm
nu=0
bs=1
ml=10
tf=name
to=x
Then I try clicking "Prairie Dog Items"-->Figurines-->Category Properties--> and
doing the same only changing "se" to Prairie. Doesn't work..both Figurines now
have the "se"=Prairie, and an item I assigned under the Hedgehog section comes
up under "Prairie Dog Items" and "Hedgehog Items" Figurine searches--(I didn't
put any "prairie" words in the item title, description, etc) what am I doing
wrong?

|||Gina, I have a similar setup with a store I am creating at
|http://www.wevegotitwireless.com (a work in progress). I have a
|phones category
|and a pagers category, each with Motorola in them. What you need to do is a
|complex search where you first search the item category (Hedgehog) then the
|subcategory (Food). It
|seems you have already done the setup in admin, so here is an example of what I
|have:
||For Phones/Motorola:
|fi=products
|st=db
|ac=0
|co=1
|sf=category
|se=Phones
|op=rm
|nu=0
|bs=1
|sf=subcategory
|se=Motorola
|op=rm
|nu=0
|bs=1
|ml=10
|tf=name
|to=x
||and for Two-Way Pagers/Motorola:
|fi=products
|st=db
|ac=0
|co=1
|sf=category
|se=twpagers
|op=rm
|nu=0
|bs=1
|sf=subcategory
|se=Motorola
|op=rm
|nu=0
|bs=1
|ml=10
|tf=name
|to=x
